DO YOU ICE YOUR FACE BEFORE OR AFTER MOISTURIZER?

You should ice your face before moisturizer as this will allow the moisturizer to be absorbed better into the layers of your skin. Ice cubes are a great way to bring down the puffiness of your skin as well as closing your pores.

I thoroughly use ice cubes when I wake up to apply around my eyes and across my face. I have tried many creams that state they reduce puffiness however I have never had any luck with them. In this article I will be answering your question ‘ Do you ice your face before or after moisturizer’.

Using ice cubes on the other hand are more practical I find as you can use as many as you wish, and they have the temperature property of being ice cold (which those creams do not have). I tend to use my ice globes across my face, you may have seem them being used in facials (like I did), but you of course can still use ice cubes if you didn’t want to pay out.

When you are using ice on your face, just ensure that you do not hold the ice in one place. The ice cube will be cold of course, so just ensure that you gently move across your entire face and down your neck. If the ice cube is too cold for your face, just get a paper tissue and cover the ice cube and then begin rubbing it on your face.

Incorporating ice cubes into your daily routine will help you reduce puffiness and increase the glowing of your skin. When placing cold temperatures onto your face, the blood vessels dilute and once you remove ice of your face the blood vessels expand helping to contribute to more blood circulation in the face.

As I said before, I thoroughly love using ice cubes around my eyes as it helps to tighten the skin and increase the fluid drainage which helps to reduce puffiness.

That is all for now, I hope you enjoyed my blog post
